Imagine having 2 phone numbers that people can contact you on, but only one phone. You can keep your work and private numbers separate, or keep a pre-paid card as a 'semi-burn' phone, but the benefits for frequent travelers is what I like most about the concept. 2 sim cards, 1 phone, no roaming charges on local calls to book accommodation and transport, but you're still contactable if your credit card company wishes to confirm a purchase (despite notifying them of your travel plans). This is the concept behind a dual-sim phone. As far as I know only Samsung and LG make dual sim phones, but the networks don't like it and don't promote them.

It has been over a year since I last posted here - and I have no-one to blame but myself. Part of the reason for not writing in 2010 was because I was in a career transition and not getting out as much as I would've liked to, and then 2011 came around and I was getting out too much (despite still being in career transition) with no end in sight as yet (this is a good thing).

Over the next while I plan to get back into the routine of keeping you updated with the interesting, sometimes weird and different things that I am up to in the buildup to my trip to Pakistan in August.

Watch this space and I look forward to sharing some of the fun and stories from my recent experiences.
